Show Faith/Defy Fate

I just read the original Fall of Reach and now im reading Ghosts of Onyx. In the latter, Dr. Halsey doesnt seem to know what SIIIs are but she has a pretty good guess about it. But even though she was concealing it, how could she have been so interested/curious about them when she had just met Noble Team during Reach's destruction? They gave the impression that Onyx was the first time she had ever seen the Spartan 3s.

-And even though Reach was falling apart around her, she seems like the type to notice things like a group of Spartans that are somewhat different from her creation?

-Also, Im not trying to bit-pick at the story. I just want some clarification.I apologize if there is a obvious explanation. I am trying to take in a lot of the Halo Universe and there is a lot of info! Help would be appreciated : )

The real explanation is that Reach was made after FoR and GoO. A canon reason could be that she thought Noble Team were some kind of Spartan II class 2.

She met Gamma squad for the biggest part (don't forget that they have been altered in different vvays then Alfa and beta companies and that the only 2 survivors of Beta company vvere still at base site, if I'm not mistaking).

He meant the book fall of Reach.

Also, she is saying some other stuff about it in her journal.

Yes, but she should have still recognized that Noble were much different from her program save Jorge.

He also mentioned Noble Team in the OP, which is what I responded to.

And in Halseys Journal, there is more then the 10 lines of dialogue she has in the game.
VVhich makes it a better source (since she tells everything in first person) then the game vvhere she only said so fevv vvords.
Not to forget that vve only see her talking vvith Noble team themself.
